Comic 393 - Fashionably Late

Author Notes:

Ironically, I almost didn't upload this page in time, nearly making IT fashionably late!

We're approaching page 400 pretty quickly, huh? I don't know what to do for it! The interview on page 300 was a lot of fun, though I answer questions fairly often, now! What would you all like to see alongside the 400th page?

I know this is super short notice but I'm doing another art stream TONIGHT at 7pm EST! I'll be drawing some SkyJam thumbnails as well as working on DotX! I'm trying out a new, later time for this compared to my regular art streams, so I'm interested to see how this goes! ^_^

Ok, is that bathroom sign in panel 3 supposed to like a progressive bathroom sign or something, or is that just a unisex bathroom. Also, why are Speedy and Fade going along with this plan? Speedy could just show up and I don't think anyone but Frisky would care. Even then, Frisky couldn't call him on it because Speedy could just say that she told an odd numbered group of friends that they had to pair up with each other and the one who didn't have a partner would be excluded from the party.

Ok, well this is a little hard to explain, but I still want to answer your question. First, I want the record to show plain and simple that I am indeed a fan of Homestuck, mainly for its long and engaging story and its unique ideas. When I think of void, two ideas pop into my head.
Firstly, I can think of void as a noun, being a warped and twisted essence or space. The void would be an area or effect that changes the space it is used on to twist the laws of nature until everything is like a fever dream. In this way void would be synonymous with veil or rift.
The other idea would be that void means a mystery or something not understood.
Now, to answer your question, I like void because I think it describes me pretty well. I kind of just blend in with other people and am not very social. As an added bonus, if void were to be used as empty space, an advocate of void would be someone who doesn't support one idea, but rather that void can be filled with and swapped for several ideas based on the situation.

@AoV My guess is that it's unisex, which makes some sense since it's a large castle that's probably easy to get lost in.

And That's super cool! All of it! My main reason for asking is that my view on Void is that it's a lack of everything(which is akin to your later statement on it being empty). I've always viewed as a sort of noun/verb. To erase or a place where things are lost. I don't see it used all that often that way so you got me curious.

Though your definitions of it are super cool with a neato explanation to boot!
(and always glad to see another Homestuck Fan.)
Thank you for answering my question.

Has anyone noticed that Fade is wearing speedy's shoes, but Speedy isn't wearing any shoes and not Fade's shoes, so Fade should be able to wear his own shoes? That stuck out to me.
Also that voice is Frisky's, as confirmed by Fade in panel 4, so all you over analysts can rest.
ALSO I think that's a unisex bathroom
